About Me

Hi I'm Leeann & this blog is mostly about Quilting, but other stuff slips in now and then too!
I'm an active member of the Whangarei Patchworkers & Quilters Club, so there's a lot of Club news also (because I like promoting the Club and Quilting).
I have been Quilting since 1996, and enjoy most types of Quilting, by hand and machine. Recently I have been enjoying a little bit of hand embroidery too.
If you'd like to email me the address is in my profile.
